My predictions are.

Should include Small building with spiderman chasing venom and a small vehicle for Nick

Good ideas, I think the mr freeze one will come with a small bat sled. Also I don't think Lego will include an electricution chair. Also I don't think arkum will be that expensive, also the tumbler will probably be 40.

I think a batsled is a good guess i would like to see that. Unfortunately you are probably right about the electrecution chair it is a bit grusome for kids . It is possible arkham will be that price but only time will tell.
Also if the tumbeler is not the £50 set what will be? Every wave has to have a £50 set (two face chase and Hulk Breakout)

About the Spidey-Venom set l guess a scene on the daily bugle with venom attacking jona and spidey trying to stop him,what do you guys think?
"Venom Attacks"
Figures :Spiderman,Venom,Jameson
Includes jamesons office or at least some part of the daily bugle building.

The minifigure guesses seem realistic, I can see Penguin or a few Marvel characters being switched around though. The price points too, I do think that the Daily Bugle especially would probably be a larger set than the Tumbler and that your expectations for Arkham are too big/high.

Venom set: Could also include Spidey's motorcycle from the show (Cap's Avenging Cycle with Spidey stickers).

Dr. Doom set: With Jameson, a Bugle office would be the logical choice, but somehow I doubt that they would base a set of this size on a newspaper office. Besides, I think in the Ultimate Spiderman show, Jameson runs a TV channel, not a newspaper. And if the Doc Ock set is any indication, TLG is not basing the Spidey sets on episodes from the show, so it's anyone's guess what this set will be. Whatever it is, I hope it will include some brick-built Doombots though!

TDKR set: I don't know what power suit thing you're talking about, but I'm guessing it will include The Bat, Batman's flying vehicle from the movie. Or it could have a SWAT car for Gordon and a motorcycle for Bats.

Arkham: Like others, I don't think the set will be that large. I'm imagining/hoping it to be similar to the Vampyre Castle from Monster Fighters and only include one or two vehicles, just like the old Arkham. And I don't think Robin's bike will look like the one in the videogame, mainly since this is Red Robin and the color scheme wouldn't match the character. And there's no water around Arkham (except the sewers, which I doubt they'll include) so I think Pengy's sub is unlikey. I also think that the execution room is unlikely. Maybe it will include a room with a chair and a couch for Harley to try to treat Joker. Either way, there are a lot of possibilities for this set, but ultimately, I just hope it wont be such a disappointment like this year's Batcave.

Some good guesses, although what needs to be answered is if they are splitting the wave with Marvel & DC (5 sets + 1 exclusive) or if each subtheme will get its own wave. Now, if each subtheme gets its own wave that would leave alot of missing sets and figs possibly. But if the wave is split, then we could only be missing the exclusive set. Also if the DKR set is released this or next month, that would leave open another spot for the January wave.

It is possible Aquaman could get lumped with Batman, but I am not ruling out a set of his own with a new villain. Next, I wonder if the Arkham set is inspired/based on the popular video game? Arctic Batman could either be with Mr. Freeze or The Penguin.

My predictions:

- Aquaman vs new villain. (Special edition set)
- Arctic Batman vs Penguin & his submarine with new penguin molds that will also appear in the 2013 Polar Explorer theme.
- Arkham City set includes Winged Batman, Hooded Robin, Nurse Harley Quinn, Mr. Freeze, Joker in jumpsuit, Security Guard & Scarecrow. (7 figs would be a very large set)
- DKR Set includes Batman, Bane, Gordon and some combination of these vehicles (The Bat, Tumbler or Batpod), if smaller, in the $50-60 range, I would say Bane's Tumbler & the Batpod.

The last two sets would involve the Marvel stuff with the Ultimate Spiderman figs.

Like the superman vs lex set, it will be aquaman vs his arch enemy. I did some research on google and found out that is Black Manta.

Black manta eh. sounds interesting. Does this mean you think their are still more january figures yet to be revealed? I was thinking the ones shown will be the full set.

@Iron mac
I like your pengie sub idea. I would love to see some new penguin moulds.

@Oky
Spiderman cycle? are there any photos of it. I thought only figures were revealled-no veicles or sets?
(I didnt realise the batman veicle was called the bat and could fly. In this picture it looks like it has legs.)Bat thingy.

I think that maybe Batman, and Penguin maybe in the same set together. In some sort of Batboat vs sub. I still am sure that Lego are keeping some figs secret. It would be a bit lame if Lego give us a TDKR set with Batman, Gordon and Bane but no Catwoman. Maybe the mould wasn't ready? Any way I'm positive in that set we will get a camp Tumbler and 'The Bat' with maybe a Cop car or SWAT Van. If Carwomen is secretly in that set then a Batpod as well.

No, but it's a recurring vehicle from the cartoon, and seeing how much TLG loves motorbikes, I wouldn't be surprised if they included one. Cap's bike with a reverse color scheme is just my guess of how it would look. You can see it in this video.
As for the Bat, no, those aren't legs, they're turbines, and you can clearly see it flying over a building in the latest trailers. Sorry if I spoiled anything.

Batman vs Mr Freeze - agreed with some of the above speculation. It will include an Alpha Team style freeze block. I am thinking we may see the Bat Boat in this one. After all it involves Aquaman? Probably the $29 or $19 set. 3 figs, 1 smaller vehicle in the same pattern as the Wolverine set and the Cosmic Cube one.

TDKR set - Bane, DK batman, Comissioner Gordon, SWAT guy, probably a SWAT truck. Maybe either the Tumbler or a bat vehicle? (or Tumbler vs Batpod?). Will be at least a $49 set. Probably more if it has a Tumbler.

Spidey vs Doom - TV studio set on the same basic scale as the Helicarrier. That same center with two angled wings we keep seeing in recent years. Spidey, Doom, Beetle, Jameson, Nova. $49 set.

Arkham Asylum - The waves bigger $99 set. As someone above said, something on about the scale as the Vampires Castle. So large open backed building or towers, plus a vehicle. Vehicle will probably be Robin centric as Batman will have the flight wings.
